Sus Take on Jewish Event Murder: Terror Org Leaders Lowkey Hyped? 😬

The Situation: Deets on Deets

So, a young Jewish couple, who were working for the Israeli Embassy, straight up got murdered near the Capital Jewish Museum in D.C. Tragic, right? But here's where it gets even more sus.

The founder and international coordinator of Samidoun (a Palestinian prisoner solidarity network that is hard linked to a designated terrorist organization), Khaled Barakat and Charlotte Kates, are catching heat for their take on it. Barakat's saying it's a consequence of Israel's actions in Gaza, like the international community not caring about Palestinian suffering led to this. Kates went even further, saying it was "logical" for people to find "alternative means of imposing consequences on Israel," and then called for "globalizing the intifada." Like, BRUH.

And it doesn't stop there. This Elias Rodriguez dude, who was affiliated with the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), is accused of being the shooter at the Jewish event. They were yelling "Free Palestine!" while committing the crime. The PSL said they have no current ties, that they broke up back in 2017.

Adding to the chaos, there's a bunch of throwback clips from MEMRI TV showing pro-Palestinian activists going OFF at protests. We're talking "Death to Israel!" and "Death to America!" level stuff. Also, after Kamala Harris got the Democratic nom, the PSL threw shade, saying supporting politicians based on their background can lead to support for "genocide."

There was this Nakba Day rally where speakers were straight up saying Israel shouldn't exist. Then, at a pro-Palestine rally in NYC, some Korean activist said North Korea's been training and arming Palestinians for decades. And at a "No to Annexation" rally in Brooklyn, people were chanting "Death to Israel!" and "Death to America!" again. It's a whole lot, fam. What's the vibe? Idek anymore.
